The rock of the Acropolis and the Parthenon remain an eternal
symbol of the city of Athens. The Greek capital is admired for its
preserved monuments, mythology, art and historic
architectural systems. Fortunately, the design scene of the city is
becoming richer after the inauguration of the New Acropolis Museum in
the summer of 2009.

Located in the historic of Makriyianni district, the Museum stands less
than 1,000 feet southeast of the Parthenon. The top-floor Parthenon
Gallery offers a 360-degree panoramic view of the Acropolis and modern
Athens. The Museum is entered from the Dionysiou Areopagitou pedestrian
street, which links it to the Acropolis and other key archeological
sites in Athens.

The museum was designed-build by Bernand Tschumi Architects with an extensive use of glass ensures breathtaking views
of the Acropolis, the surrounding historic hills and the modern city of
Athens and immediate views of the archaeological excavation that lies
below the Museum, visible through large expanses of glass floor. With
the benefit of the changing natural light, visitors can discern and
discover the delicate surface variations of the sculptures and select
the vantage point from which to observe the exhibits.

You can end your visit by having a coffee or lunch, at the cafe-restaurant of the Museum, enjoying the panoramic view of the Parthenon.
